Fuck Charlie Kirk. Now is the time for him to be forgotten. Downvote any reference to him wherever you see it. He’s no martyr and he’s no hero, conservative or otherwise. He had lots of bad hot takes, was a terrible debater, and has a legacy of hatred and bigotry. Was his murder good or justified, Absofuckinglutely not. Should he be memorialized and revered? Even bigger no. It’s our job to make the algorithm make him go away. Don’t engage in posts about him and be sure to downvote or not engage at all. Charlie Kirk needs to not even be a footnote in a history book about conservative politics.

The wikipedia entry about him in 20 years should be “Charlie Kirk’s political takes were so bad that he was murdered by one of his own.”

His mission is to own the country. He doesn’t care what the outcome is beyond that.

That’s… literally the opposite of reality.

There’s better ways to combat fascism.

Such as? Because from my experience and the history that has been taught to me, the only solution is violence. Unless you can cite examples otherwise. I’m not aware of a fascist state that was voted out of power.

That’s not so much a “call out” as a “hey, I think the president just had a stroke.”

Hateful, divisive people who preach hate and divisiveness should probably avoid speaking in public. For everyone’s safety.

Fuck Charlie Kirk, fuck JD Vance. His murder was wrong, but that’s as far as I’ll go.

Wow. We’re already jumping to “war is peace”. I honestly thought we had a little more time before full 1984. Fuck it, why not.

Definitely looks like a stroke. Just like the posters in hospitals where they tell you to immediately notify staff if you see a face like that.

Not to him. To him it’s about being on top, being a winner. The policy shit is all done by other people. With his blessing, sure, but only after they talk to him in small words about how it’s great and will make people love him even more.

I fucking live here. Crime is extremely low where he is. The whole thing was a show from the beginning. “Democrat cities have crime and chaos, so i cleaned them up” is a talking point that he’s spending hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars on, just to make himself feel special.

Oh no! Anyway…

Allowing a kid to use tools that were designed to actively kill things is not healthy, no matter the household.

My friend, hunting is a thing. Some people hunt for their food, so “no matter the household” is just hyperbole. Also, instructing children on the proper use of and the danger of weapons is how you reduce accidental gun death by children in a home with weapons.

Do we also allow kids to use grenades? Drive trucks on public roads? Why not buy sex toys from a sex shop?

That’s just reactionary drivel. You can do better.

Big fan of Name&Shame™

kowtow or half the campus gets defunded is a hell of a drug.

It was never about the act. That’s protected. The content, however… that’s sedition.

That’s… literally the point of “right to work” states. “Right to work” is a set of union busting laws. But by the time they started, unions had already lost the voting power they previously had. Jimmy Hoffa worked really hard to get this shit going, and all it took was a couple decades of success for union members to be like, “idk maybe that extra $2.00 an hour to leave the union is worth it” and here we are. People suck.

The question is how does a 13 year old child have access to 23 guns. At least in the article it makes it sound like they were his. Obviously he shouldn’t have access to any*, but the number does bring to focus just how fucked that household is.

*in a healthy household, teaching a child of that age to fire a .22LR long gun at the range is not uncommon or unreasonable. It’s traditional. I learned to fire them in summer camp I think at 10 or 11 (granted it was like 1980 or so.)

now you’re trying to blame video streams?

That’s not what the commenter did at all. What he said is that the current social structure for kids is FUCKED and maybe we should be doing something about that. And yes, it should be the family’s responsibility, but they’re fucked too. This nation has no traditions to fall back on. It has GUNS. That’s our thing. freedumb and guns. Social support? “that’s gay” and this nation hates gay. Government support? “that’s communism.” We worship rich white people who for the most part represent violence against anyone who stands in their way. The environment is collapsing, but the people in charge lie to our faces about it. Nobody can afford to go to school, and the people who do are in life-long crippling debt. And these kids, who are raised by their screens and not their parents who are also so self-absorbed that they’re trying to make a living as an influencer or whatever, see nothing but despair in their future. What are they going to do for a living when half the jobs are being taken by AI? Leave their suburban home and migrate to the fields to pick raspberries? Kids can’t even read properly and their government is taking away what literal education they have. They don’t interact in person anymore. It’s all Discord and in-game voice. They have no connections anymore. School is the worst because all of the things schools had in previous generations are gone due to budget cuts and teachers who can’t afford to do anything but the bare minimum. And even there, the quality of teachers has gone down since the pay is so low. They’re not supported by the school board, because those people just want to bring back prayer in school or what the fuck ever pet HOA Karen project they got themselves elected for. Oh and now there’s cops in every school terrorizing any child that acts out, regardless if it’s maybe and autistic tic or just god forbid, a Bad Day. Living with all of this, being inundated with insanity online from all over the world, having no clue how they’re going to navigate the psychosis that is living in the USA in this era, why not go out in a blaze of glory? Some of those shooters had their names remembered. Especially by this particular 13 year old who obsessed over said school shooters. It could be something to aspire to. Help take down this sick, cancer-ridden mockery of a modern society.

But sure, let your take be that they were blaming streaming videos.

I blame the mother. How the fuck do you let your 13 year old child have access to A gun, let alone that arsenal? Maybe a BB gun, or a locked up .22LR long gun to take to the range with a youth shooting group. This was a child that was raised by the Internet, and not parents.

They’re not cracking down on anything. They’re stopping any crackdowns they may have started previously. They’re trying to make the US a tax haven for the elites.
